RFKJr: Quackery In His Own Words

"Robert F. Kennedy Jr, Secretary of Health and Human Services, just sent shockwaves through Trump’s inner circle and the medical establishment. What did RFK Jr. say this time that has Trumpworld running for cover?"

COVID-19: Vaccines Vs Natural Immunity

There is much misinformation regarding vaccines, natural immunity, herd immunity, antibody tests, et al, especially since the pandemic of COVID-19 intertwined with the Repugnant misinformation campaign. Click on the link below for clarification:

Why the COVID vaccine beats "Natural Immunity"

The US Government And Vaccines

U.S. Supreme Court

Jacobson v. Massachusetts, 197 U.S. 11 (1905)

Jacobson v. Massachusetts

No. 70

Argued December 6, 1904

Decided February 20, 1905

197 U.S. 11

" - - - The liberty secured by the Constitution of the United States does not import an absolute right in each person to be at all times, and in all circumstances, wholly freed from restraint, nor is it an element in such liberty that one person, or a minority of persons residing in any community and enjoying the benefits of its local government, should have the power to dominate the majority when supported in their action by the authority of the State.
"It is within the police power of a State to enact a compulsory vaccination law, and it is for the legislature, and not for the courts, to determine in the first instance whether vaccination is or is not the best mode for the prevention of smallpox and the protection of the public health."

The EXPERTS On Vaccines

I continue to be amazed by the ignorance and ideology of many people when it comes to vaccines (other subjects also, of course).  Below are links in support of the safety and effectiveness of vaccines from the EXPERTS, who are in scientific consensus agreement on the subject:

When is the Best Time to Get A Flu Shot?

"It has been said for years that the best time to get the flu shot is between Halloween and Thanksgiving. With the widespread timing of flu season and the unknown duration of antibodies, it's hard to say whether a few weeks will make a difference. But, if you are older (80% - 90% of flu-related deaths occur in people older than 65) it's probably best to stick to the standard recommendation of early November and have as many of those antibodies at the ready come February. But, if it the choice is getting the flu shot now or letting it drop down on your 'things to do' list until it falls below 'organize closet'.... go out and take care of it. Oh - and be sure to pick up a bottle of shampoo while you're there."

Chickenpox Is Really A Big Deal

"According to the CDC, in 2014, 95% of children from 13 to 17 years old had received at least one dose of the Varicella (chickenpox) vaccine. (Kids are supposed to receive two doses.) That's a good thing because, contrary to popular belief, chickenpox can be serious for some people. It killed roughly 100 to 150 and hospitalized more than 10,000 Americans every year in the early 1990s."

Immune System Boosting

All of it is bogus, except vaccines.

A deeper look into the immune system.

Trump Is Even Worse Than You Might Think

"Trump is an arrogant anti-intellectual. He clearly does not respect accuracy, due diligence, following a valid process, or even getting basic facts right. He does not appear to take the job of president seriously enough to brush up on the basics of policy."

None of the above should be new to anyone paying attention.  However, consider the following:

This article not only is a complete rebuttal to all of claims of anti-vaccination people, it also has some excellent links on how to evaluate and understand scientific literature in general.

Dear parents, you are being lied to.

Are The Recommended Childhood Vaccine Schedules Evidence-Based?

A lengthy, but thorough, analysis of present vaccine schedules.  Anti-vaccine folks, you may think that such an analysis is an opening for pseudoscience, but don't go there.

Vaccine schedules are evidence-based, but there is always room for improvement

Public Health Trumps Personal Freedom

"The benefits of vaccines vastly outweigh the tiny risks. Their children should not suffer, and the public health should not suffer, because of their incorrect beliefs regarding the scientific facts"
